Procedure

To a solution of 5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzoic acid (18.0 g, 91.3 mmol) and DMF (0.1 mL) in THF (150 mL) was added dropwise oxalyl chloride (12.7 g, 100 mmol) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hr, and then at room temperature for 3 hr. This solution was added dropwise to aqueous ammonia (7% aqueous solution, 200 mL) under ice-cooling. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure to evaporated THF, and the precipitated insoluble material was collected by filtration. The filtered cake was washed with water to give 5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzamide as a pale-yellow powder (10.0 g, 56%).
